Chocolate literally makes me happy inside. If I'm having a bad day, chocolate is the answer. So naturally, I love dark chocolate and mint together! Even if you're not too crazy about mint chocolate, chances are you'll like this. The cake itself is super rich, chocolatey, and moist, and the combination is divine. Still not sold on the mint? Leave out the extract if that's not your thing.
